      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NO* been resolved because:

      Hi ********,


      I'm reaching out to provide an update regarding my previous complaint #******** that against Tiffany & *** in ******* **.

      On July 6th, 2022, I and my husband purchased a pair of wedding bands (18W * *WO MD ring and 18W * *WO DI *** ring) just to be matched and that was our favorite band when we visited Tiffany ******* in **. Just a few months later, the * started to detach around the band. I filed the complaint on BBB right after and my husband received the replaced band. However, we found the "*" on the replaced band that we received on 12/30/2022 began to detach around the band in June 2023, just like the first band that we bought in July 2022. I first followed up with the manager named ****** for this issue but she never got back to me. My desired settlement is refund for both of the wedding bands. My original order # is *********. My second order # is ********* when the store manger ordered the replaced band for us. *he pictures of the damaged band are attached along with the updated receipt.

      Please let me know if you need additional information. *hank you in advance for your review.

      The following has occurred through the time span of about a year, year and a half. I purchased a bracelet from Tiffany's using a gift card I was given in 2021. The bracelet broke. I returned it to Tiffany's, paid the $80+ to have it repaired and received it back from Tiffanys.I wore the bracelet it again, and it broke again, in the same place it broke the first time. I called Tiffany's, they told me to return it and they would look at it. After looking at the bracelet for the 2nd time in repairs, I was told I would receive a gift card refund and that they would keep the bracelet.They returned the bracelet, still broken. I called Tiffany's who then sent me a return label to send the broken bracelet back to repairs, I was told that upon receipt they would issue me a gift card refund. I sent the bracelet back and it was received by Tiffanys on November 7 2022. I waited a month and called to check back to see where the gift card was and I was told that Tiffanys changed their mind, they won't issue me a refund in the form of a gift card, they will fix and return the bracelet. I have been spent a great deal of time on the phone with various people in an attempt to hold Tiffany's to their word that they would send me the refund, as of today, December 9, 2022, I have only been put on hold, I have left voice messages and am continually put off with no resolution.

      On Saturday November 12, 2022, I brought 3 watches to Tiffany's for battery replacement for all 3 watches, and strap replacement on 2 watches. The watches are Tiffany round face 18k gold bracelet watch. One 18k gold ***************************** watch with black strap and one *************** ***************************** watch with black strap. The order was for the 18K ***************************** strap to be replaced with a red leather strap and the Silver watch black strap to be replaced with new black strap. The order was written and all 3 items were sent off site for work. I received 3 confirmation emails on Nov 16 that the items were received. The work order for each watch was incorrect. Service order indicated the round face watch bracelet was to be replaced with red calf strap, and the ***************************** watches were to have straps replaced with new black straps. After seeing the mishap, I contacted Tiffanys and requested that only the batteries be replaced. I was assured that only the batteries would be replaced. I went to BBB website, saw several complaints re: Tiffanys and decided that I would halt the work order, called on 11/23/22 requested no work be done and to return my watches to the ********* store for pick up. I called 11/28/22 and was told the watches have not reached the store yet. These are very precious items to me and hold sentimental value. I am fearful I will not have my watches returned to me. I am asking for assistance from BBB to resolve this issue.

      We have a quality control and price gouging issue pursuant to the resizing of three Tiffany rings; the resizing was 'botched' and Tiffany & Co. expects us to pay for a second resizing when its personnel 'dropped the ball' initially. First, the 'measurer' failed to listen attentively and just proceeded in a perfunctory manner in fulfilling the resizing even though we explained what we desired. At the return of the rings, three weeks later, it was evident that the resizing was too restrictive but the second staff member at pick up tried to convince us that the repairs were adequate and that the addition of platinum to the bands for all three rings was sufficient. The rings are unwearable for an extended period of time, and our 'remedy' is to return them all for resizing with the proper amount of platinum added to the bands as should have been accomplished the first time. We have been in communication with management in *** and received the impression that from their perspective the work was adequate and any further adjustment would involve an additional fee for completion. The fact that an error was made initially by Tiffany & Co. personnel in *****, and that the engagement ring was not repaired adequately and has thinness at the bottom of the band suggests to us that the jewelers should absorb any further costs under the warranty and do the resizing again at no cost to us. We have already been charged about 600 dollars for two rings with the engagement ring being repaired for free.

      I brought my Tiffany & Co. 7 diamond platinum wedding band into their Short Hills, ** location for a complimentary routine cleaning and prong check. I have done this several times before in past years. It normally takes 2 weeks. I brought it in on October 5th, 2022. My order number is ******. They have either lost and/or possibly broken my ring. I have gotten two bizarre emails from their repair department saying they received the ring with a dismounted diamond and it would cost be $1800 to repair it. I did NOT bring in a broken ring. No one is answering the store phone, nor is anyone at the store calling me back. It has been 1 month and 9 days. Please help me.

      Grievance Against Tiffany Jewelry, New York Hello, I am writing to the Better Business Bureau to register a complaint. About two years ago, my husband purchased a bracelet from Tiffanys for my Birthday. It was silver, with a small blue heart. Upon receiving it, I noticed that the rings attached to the bracelet were not soldered, and in fact one of the small tags was already off. I put it away with the intent of having it repaired. I never wore it, and this past September. I took it to my local Jeweler to have them soldered.I wore it for about one week and then it caught on my fireplace screen and splintered in many directions. Thats when I discovered that the silver ***** were strung on clear filament. Not exactly what I would have expected from a $250.00 bracelet. I was able to retrieve about 8 beads, and that was it. I wrote to the company (via email) three times. I asked for a replacement and was told that I could send the bracelet back and they would give me an estimate for repair.I wrote again, stating that I would not be sending it back because there was nothing left, and I definitely would not expect to pay for a repair. Also, there was nothing to send back.Tiffanys third response was to send back what I had along with the receipt. To say that I am exasperated is an understatement. It was a gift and also two years ago. I truly believe that something from Tiffany should be made with quality material. It seems as if they have lost their pride since it was taken over.I still stand by my request for a new bracelet and will provide a picture of the eight beads that are remaining. Thank you for any assistance that you can offer.*************************
